The dose makes the poison.Ethanol is highly toxic if it is consumed in large quantities.Although it is the second least toxic of the five alcohols discussed in this case, the ingestion of large quantities of ethanol isnot safe. One serious problem with ethanol consumption is how the quantity is conveyed to the consumer. For example,American malt liquor can be sold in 23.5 fl. oz. (695 mL) cans and is 12% volume per volume (v/v) ethanol.Although these cans are labeled as containing multiple servings, many young people consider one can to be a singleserving. Drinking two cans of this beverage can result in an accidental overdose of ethanol.Two cans may not seem like much until you do the math.In the previous question, you determined that the total volume of pure ethanol in a 695 mL can of American malt liquor is83.4 mL. To better understand its significance, consider how this volume of ethanol compares with other alcoholic beverages.Calculate the total volume of ethanol in a standard 25.4 fl. oz (750 mL) bottle of liquor (e.g., whiskey, vodka, rum, etc.), whichis typically 40% (v/v) ethanol.Enter your answer in milliliters. Calculate the total volume of ethanol in a standard 25.4 fl. oz (750 mL) bottle of liquor (e.g., whiskey, vodka, rum, etc.), whichis typically 40% (v/v) ethanol.Enter your answer in milliliters.mLpure ethanol in liquor:Now calculate the total volume of ethanol in a typical 12 fl. oz (354.8 mL) can of light beer, which is 4% (v/v) ethanol.Enter your answer in milliliters.mLpure ethanol in light beer:

pure ethanol in liquor= 40*750/100 = 300ml

You are a chemical developer for a major automotive parts supplier that develops antifreeze designed specifically for their vehicles. Antifreeze lowers the freezing point of water relative to pure water. This is an example of the colligative property of freezing point depression. In the presence of antifreeze, the freezing point of water – which serves as a coolant in internal combustion engines – will be lowered, thus preventing potentially catastrophic damage to the engine that would otherwise occur upon expansion of water due to freezing. Despite its name, anti-freeze also plays an important role in keeping your engine working during the summer months: the anti-freeze also acts to elevate the boiling point of the water so that it doesn’t start to boil on really hot days. Your boss is considering using a calcium chloride solution as anti-freeze and wants you to study the impact of the new anti-freeze on boiling. To be able to see a measurable effect, your boiling point elevation must…
